Philippines: Mainstreaming Climate Change Adaptation in Watershed Management and Upland Farming

Upland farmers and their families, who number about 20 million, comprise the poorest of the poor in the Philippines. Their livelihoods depend on cultivating marginal hilly land areas which are very vulnerable to climate related risks. This overall goal of this multi-organization project is to promote climate change adaptation by upland farmers in watersheds at the national level in the Philippines.
